I don't mean to thread fart, but I don't understand why having a tow hook is desireable. If you ever rear end someone, you're just going to cause that much more damage to their car since it won't be a flexible bumper cover and foam hitting them, it'll be this firmly attached piece of metal.

I guess it does look kind of neat, though.

I got the gunmetal then painted it gold. Check back a page or two.

Must be an Asian thing because we don't have that with our TRD lineup .. or do we as a universal piece?

I totally disagree. That plastic is harder than steel.
